Please complete this form to participate in our 6th Focus Group session held by the Neuroscience and Society department at Simply Neuroscience.
These sessions will be 1-hour long Zoom calls in which students/individuals around the world will have the platform to express their thoughts about neuro-related or healthcare policy matters in their area. We plan to begin with a speaker, then move on to open forum discussion if time allows. This will inform future focus sessions or community outreach.
Date: 12 PM ET/9 AM PT on Saturday, January 15th
